Ancillary revenue has been increasingly recognised as a key element of improving an airline’s profitability as well as service offerings to its passengers. There are tremendous opportunities for airlines to maximise revenue through various ancillary revenue channels and this session will be critical for aviation executives who are looking for inroads to better understand and identify key ancillary products and channels that can be implemented to drive profits for their airlines.
 

With rapid growth in China’s commercial aviation market, are the Chinese airlines meeting growth requirements with their current technological systems? What’s needed to build a robust IT infrastructure to ensure smooth information exchange, reduce downtime and guarantee 24/7 efficient operations? This dedicated session on airline IT will give case study insights into what airlines are currently adopting to enhance their airline operational performance, facilitating information management for their fleet, as well as their needs and challenges pertaining to IT capabilities. This is a critical forum to address all airlines’ needs to facilitate current and future growth of their business.
 

It is important for airlines to have a thorough understanding of how distribution can be maximised to increase revenue while staying cost-effective. In this session, we will look explicitly into e-commerce strategies – technology enablement, fraud management and payment channels. We will also examine GDS pricing models – how can they work to provide more flexibility and lower fees for airlines and what exactly are airlines looking for.
